Watercolour and golf leaf make an exciting mixture! Add in a little ink or line and wash and it become magic.
This is a full length tutorial on applying gold leaf to a painting. So if you are looking for an instant ‘how to’ this isn’t it. If you want to come into the studio and look over my shoulder, then this is the place.
I have done a part 1 about the painting separately, so you can see it from the start. Hope you find it useful. If you have any questions, just shout!
I have written a book 'Painting animals in watercolour', published by Crowood Press and available in print or as an ebook - just search for Liz Chaderton on Amazon and it'll show up!
